Semua Bab Sire Bond: The Vampire's Obsession: Bab 61 - Bab 70

Morning came too soon. Lilith had barely slept at all. After last night’s conversation about her father, her mind felt too cluttered to truly rest. Every time she closed her eyes, images of Noah, blood, and her father’s exhausted face kept flashing before her. And worst of all, she began to imagine how Lucas must have seen it all unfold.Lilith sat quietly by the living room window with a thin blanket wrapped around her body. The sky was still gray, last night’s rain had left the air cold and the streets wet outside the small rental house. It was quiet. But strangely, the silence didn’t feel quite so empty now. Because Lucas was still in the house.She could sense the man’s presence even without seeing him at all. Their bond was too deeply attuned to one another now. A few minutes later, the sound of soft footsteps came from the kitchen. Lucas appeared carrying a cup of hot tea. Lilith immediately noticed that he was still wearing the same clothes from the night before.“You haven’t l

Lilith immediately felt that this situation was far more alarming than when she had suggested there might be a vampire outside the house. Lilith stood silently a few steps behind Lucas.“Are you sure it’s not Ingrid’s magic?” Lilith asked again in a whisper.Lucas kept staring out the window. “No. I’m sure this isn’t Ingrid’s magic.”Lilith began to dislike the wary look on Lucas’s face. “If it’s not Ingrid… then who else? Isn’t Ingrid a two-thousand-year-old witch? Could there be another witch as old as Ingrid?”Lucas didn’t answer Lilith’s question; instead, he slowly opened the front door and stepped out onto the porch. The cold morning air rushed in along with the scent of damp earth from last night’s rain. Lilith followed Lucas outside shortly after.“Lucas...”Lucas turned his head slightly, his eyes now reddened and looking sharper than usual. “I want you to stay inside.”Lilith exhaled slowly. “Not anymore.”Lucas’s jaw tightened slightly. “I’m serious, Lilith.”“And I’m tired

The name Margaux once again seemed to strike Lilith’s mind, like something that had never truly gone away. Margaux, the original vampire. A figure who kept appearing in every explanation about her blood, about her family’s curse, about the reason everyone seemed afraid of Margaux. But hearing that name mentioned alongside her mother’s felt entirely different. More real and personal at the same time.“What do you mean by that?” Lilith asked in a soft voice.Selene simply looked at Lilith for a few seconds with her pale, piercing gaze, as if she were seeing deep into Lilith’s very soul. Then, slowly, Selene began to smile a small, sad smile.“I think… Ingrid would be angry if I said too much.”“Selene.” Lucas’s tone turned sharp again.But Selene just seemed relaxed now. She took a small step back from the porch of Lilith’s rental house.“I just wanted to make sure of something.” Selene’s gaze shifted back to Lilith. “And now, I’ve gotten the answer I’ve been looking for all along.”Lil

The morning dawned more peaceful than usual. The rain from the night before had stopped, leaving behind a chill in the air and the scent of damp earth around Lilit’s small rented house. Dim sunlight streamed through the kitchen window, creating a peaceful atmosphere that felt strange after several days filled with chaos.Evelyn was still asleep on the living room sofa, wrapped in a blanket and hugging one of Lilith’s small pillows. For the first time in a long while, the house felt a little alive again. Yet Lilith’s mind still couldn’t truly settle.She stood silently in front of the kitchen sink, pouring hot tea into a cup, but her thoughts kept returning to last night’s dream. Lucas, that black scarf, and that sad gaze that even now still felt all too real.“I’m starting to lose my mind…” Lilit murmured to herself.But deep down, Lilit knew this wasn’t just her imagination. The memory was too detailed, too vivid, and too emotional to be just an ordinary dream. The sound of soft foot

Hope. That was the clearest thing Lilith could see in Lucas’s eyes right now. Not obsession, not possessiveness, and not that sense of ownership that had so often made Lilith feel secretly annoyed. Rather, it was something far simpler. It was as if, after waiting so long, Lucas had finally seen a sign that Lilith was truly beginning to remember.And for some reason, that actually made Lilith’s chest feel tight. They stood staring at each other for a few seconds. No one spoke, and no one moved. Until finally, Evelyn cleared her throat loudly.“Okay. This is officially the most awkward thing I’ve ever witnessed.”Lilith immediately blinked rapidly, while Lucas also shifted his gaze slightly, and the atmosphere that had felt too intense finally eased a bit. Evelyn then began pointing at herself.“Just reminding everyone that I’m still here.”The corners of Lucas’s mouth turned up slightly at Evelyn’s words. “Noted.”Evelyn then immediately looked at Lilith over there. “Oh my God.”“What?
